NYC Mooney Trifecta

[201er]

Dear Mooney Aviator Awards Committee,

Please review my application for the prestigious Trifecta award for flying into all 3 NYC major airports KJFK, KEWR, and KLGA in my Mooney M20J.

 

 

 

@carusoam you can start engraving my plaque . In addition, you can throw in the Grand Slam award for hitting every NYC major and minor metro airport under the NYC Class Bravo including KJFK, KEWR, KLGA, KTEB, KMMU, KCDW, KFRG, KHPN, and KLDJ.

Who else has been to every airport under their local Bravo?

Sounds like an expensive journey

Nah, do you know how close they are from Linden? And 8gph goes a long way in a Mooney!

I was thinking more about the landing fees.

They'd have to catch me first! I darted away so fast that the airport police could not catch up to stick a bill on my windshield!

AMAZING accomplishment!

 

I’ve hit all but 3 —-

KDFW, KDAL, T31

Low approach @ KNFW

We have a lot under DFW

Not to mention all the ones near DFW.;

Just to show, DFW has a lot under the B:

A few of the ‘donuts’ are private so these I’ve missed but, the ones with services, yep...

Don’t worry, they’ll send it to you via mail

They haven’t yet. It’s been 6 months since Newark.

Dang... I ran out of likes earlier in the day!  

NYC is a pretty intense environment.

It looks like Mike went three for three, with a high level of success... using his well known team building skills, and outgoing personality... and a knack for knowing all the rules...

Unfortunately, we can’t tell how many attempts he made...  or how many days it really took...

Don’t go by the one pair of pants he seems to be wearing in all of the different videos.... rumor has it he has several identical pairs of pants...  One MSer claims they are the same ‘stinky pants’ from 2011...  

Being part of the Mooney Community is really interesting... some fly Boeing’s into these giant airports... Mikey slips in on a whim, in his tiny Mooney... always on the centerline, with great precision...

I saw another MSer Mooney video posted to YT earlier... haven’t gotten to watch it yet...

Go 201er!

Go MSers!

Go MS!

Thanks for sharing all the cool details!

Best regards,

I don't know Mike @201er, I'm skeptical of the claim.   My gut tells me you are likely still missing 6N6 and 7N3.   When you do bag these, don't take your beloved Mooney into either of them or you get the other!

At 8 gph, it couldn't have been a fast escape.

We don't have no Bravo around here... But now I really want to try hitting all the commercial airports in Poland with a touch-and-go...
